Knowing someone's age approximately I'd really like to get the definition used for that 'jog' You're not letting him get away with that are you.? Don't know why ageism is treated less seriously than racism or sexism. Possibly because you people are not as sexually attractive as those other groups. I let him get away, I'm not in the habit of running after guys or anyone for that matters.

Knowing someone's age approximately I'd really like to get the definition used for that 'jog' My daily morning "jog" is 4.2 kms and takes 29 minutes, never over 30 minutes. How did you manage to 'adjust' your watch?

Mock away but that's what I do, the time is an important bellwether for me personally. Oddly, I can't not do it although the rainy season makes it challenging at times.

After fourteen months in the infantry I thought it cheating to jog without proper attire like military boots, helmet and carrying my trusted UZI. So I stopped.

But, but, but, I have it from an impeccable source that Beach Rd is lined with bars full of non Guardian readers in Chang vests at 9 am. The one time I went past the bars at the bottom of Soi 8 it was about 11.30 am and I saw no more than 20 punters. Being on the back of a motorsy I was unable to go and confirm this or verify the sartorial details. I believe we are refered to as gammons and flag shaggers, Rule Brittania,

Flag shaggers? Had to look that up. "Someone who thinks patriotism can only be extreme nationalism. Wrapping themselves tightly in their country's flag, singing ( badly and without knowing the words let alone the meanings) patriotic songs and rolling out such displays at all opportunities as proof of their 'loyalty'. The flagshagger knows little about the history of the country but frequently re writes it to suit jingoistic, xenophobic & very frequently racist rhetoric. All flagshaggers are the pathetic remnants of grooming gangs known as 'trumpists', 'brexiteers' or similar who they will aggressively defend in a frightening display of 'Stockholm syndrome'. Flagshaggers are useful only for their votes and once these are used they are cast aside." www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=FlagshaggerFor example www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/flag-shaggers-racists-patriotism-row-22950249

Every day is a learning experince on here uncle.
The irony of it all, the same people who make these disparaging remarks are the same people who have Ukranian flags, EU flags or sometimes anti social but always anti facist crap on their pathetic FB pages, usually people working in some crap dead end job in the UK who resent their taxes going to fund the playboy lifestyle of expats in Thailand.

I am sure I've seen him referred to as "a bit of a woker", don't know what that means either.

Speaking of Brexit as rgs did briefly, I read that Italy and Greece will be jointly responsible for the imminent collapse of the Euro.
Load of tosh I am sure, usually an indication that somebody on the Mail or similar has a hangover. Any of our financially savvy and responsible (arf arf) contributors care to posit a balanced view.

Although 'Brussels' is no longer in control it's nice to use brexit to bash foreigners especially when there's a need to distract from local issues like the Tory Grand Assembly Undoing aka a nice objective debate amongst polite adults.

Well the bit I read, he seemed to know what he was talking about. Italy a failed state, Greece he just mentioned the name no comment necessary apparently, with others just not pulling their weight and Germany now having their own problems they can no longer carry everyone else. Perhaps the Japs can give some cheap, unsecured loans to tide them over.
But you are probably right, just the Thatcherites deflecting attention, while the terrorist fans are navel gazing.
